Pros:

The food was surprisingly good.

Cons:

The TV reception was terrible. Also, I felt that atmosphere was more suited to tradesmen. There were quite a few.

We will return
Pros:

nice and clean, friendly staff
Was great having No.16 as we was able to let the dog out for a wee, in our own secured outside space.

Cons:

Nowhere to place the soap in the shower.
Lots of noise from the flat above could hear the shower running and the toilet when flushed.
Some sound proofing is needed
